[Talk-ca] OSM Vancouver Island Mappers - Meetup group

[Sam Vekemans]

Hi All,

I have started the meetup group, in attempts to get more support for
mapping,
 http://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Vancouver-Island-Mappers/
So there are 12 others who indicated interest.

However, as im busy with this Import Stuff, im kind of leaving the group
hanging as im not really the best person to host a workshop at the moment.
(but i'll be there on wednesday)

If anyone has an interest, please join in the group, and i'll set you up as
an 'assistant co-host'.  And take over the show :)

.... cause like some of you have already noticed. .. I have a tendency to
talk about the Import. .. When thats not what the 'mapping party' is all
about.

On a technical note:  All the Road data for the island is already imported,
with a little work needed in Nanaimo, and just about all the CanVec data is
available (accept rivers & lakes) is already in OSM. (and the lower mainland
is just about done too)

... i should be able to answer most of the questions... but basically,
everything thats nailed to the ground needs to be mapped :-)

Cheers,
Sam
